Sealine C430
Flexibility is the name of the game
with Sealine’s new mid-range C430
coupé. There are three different
IPS engine sizes including IPS400,
500 and 600, and a trio of alternative
cabin layouts below decks.
There are three IPS
engine options available
on the C430; we would
opt for the larger two
The base-level IPS400 option may
struggle to shift the C430’s weight
with a full compliment of cruising
stores on board, so we would
recommend opting for the 370hp
IPS500s or the 435hp IPS600s.
A standard cabin
layout comprising
a full-beam master amidships and
double VIP in the bows are both
served by almost identically sized
ensuite bathrooms, but this can
be replaced by a three-cabin
arrangement with the master moved
to the bows and either two doubles
or a double and a twin amidships.
On deck, the hydraulic bathing
platform is supplemented by a transom
wet bar and the foredeck seating area
has an optional sunshade and pop-up
lights. The starting price just under
£400,000 is competitive, too.

An optional canopy can be
erected to offer some shelter
over the foredeck seating area

Bénéteau Swift Trawler 35

Launched in 2009, the Swift Trawler
34 has been one of Bénéteau’s most
popular and successful models of
recent times. So the new Swift Trawler
35 arrives at Southampton with high
expectations and the challenging task
of improving a design that already
makes the very most out of what
a 35ft (10.66m) hull has to offer.
The exterior apes the Swift Trawler 30
and sports a rounded, modern look. A
welcome feature borrowed from the
entry-level model is the split transom
that extends cockpit space out to the
bathing platform with flip-down
squabs on the inside of each gate
providing extra seating space.
The ST34’s quirky mast has been
replaced by a simple radar arch and with a double cabin forward and a
